The property was beautiful, the restaurants were good, the staff was great. It was very hard to get service at the pool bar. There were often only two people on staff trying to serve 100+ guests in and around the lobby and pool area. When we arrived there was no concierge at the desk, when we went back later we waited over an hour to get service. A couple hiccups but we would definitely return. The e-bikes and snorkeling gear at the activity center were a great amenity!

When we checked out today. We arrived 25 minutes early and the bell hop took our bags and locked them up. Were were not leaving the area. Our transport arrived and we could not get our bags and nobody had a key card to open.
The property was pretty clean but there was a considerable amount of trash that was overlooked the whole week along the beach walkway. Food was as expected for an all inclusive. The sit down restaurants were very good except my lasagna as paparazzi was terrible but the ossobuco was really good. Dead animals around for a couple days that were hit by the speeding shuttle carts attracted so many flies and there were flies everywhere, especially in the food areas. We find it odd that you allow outside guests to use the beach near the 2500 building as long as they don’t use the chairs. There was one large family taking up a lot of space. Smoking constantly, extremely loud and obnoxious. Throwing sand. Security guards were pretty useless at that end .
Coffee shop worker were the best part of all the service workers. We may return to Aruba but may choose to go elsewhere.

Many positives obviously, Aruba is paradise. Resort was huge and room was right on the beach which was amazing. They have like 6 or 7 different pools to use which is awesome.

Only 2 negatives:

- found a huge cockroach in my room one day

- the Mexican restaurant got all of our orders completely wrong and brought out random foods.

Everything else was excellent 👌

Staff was hit or miss. Some good, and some outright rude. One individual at concierge (a woman with a yellow shirt and tattoos working at 2 PM on Sunday, 7/19) was rude for the second time to a member in my group simply asking how to locate our event bus. She said it wasn't her problem and acted like we were bothering her.

All-inclusive should be all-inclusive, not this maze of some places being included while others are not.

Dinner should be served at both resorts, not making guests at Tamarijn walk to Divi for dinner.

It was borderline insulting to suggest that if we lost a wristband, we would be charged $1,400 ($200 x 7 nights) because of it. For the 6 members of our party, that would have been $8.400 if, for some reason, we all had lost our wristbands. They presented this to us with a tone like we were entering a prison and there would be \"consequences\" if the wristbands were lost.

Overall, I wouldn't stay here again. It was \"ok\" but not worth the money spent. Too many rules, ridiculous threat fees, and spotty service.

Property was beautifully located on a great beach. I loved that our rooms walked right out to the beach. It was challenging getting restaurant reservations, and in fact we had to eat off the resort half the time because we could never get in to several of the restaurants. The plates and silverware at the buffets were often times dirty, and had to be exchanged. Despite it being advertised that there would be a stocked mini bar in our rooms, there was not. Housekeeping never replaced used glasses in the rooms during the full week we were there. Additionally, our children (teens) were on the ground floor facing the beach and their sliding door leading to the outside had a broken lock. We complained about this, however it was unable to be fixed, and we were not offered to move them to another room, so were left potentially exposed with an unlocked door. There was an alarm that could be set on the door to sound if it is opened however, it still did not make me feel fully comfortable. Overall, while we will be coming back to Aruba, we will not be staying again at this resort.

3/5 Stars Overpriced for what you get—okay stay, but missed expectations
We stayed for 4 nights as a group of 7 (3 adults and 4 kids) in 2 oceanfront rooms that we booked 4 months in advance. Front desk staff were fine, but despite booking so far ahead, we weren't given connecting rooms—just two separate rooms nearby.
The Good: The rooms themselves were nice, and the staff in general were friendly and helpful.

The Drawbacks:
Dining: Getting dinner reservations at the restaurants was extremely frustrating and difficult. The food overall was just okay—definitely not worth the money.
Pools & Beaches: Pretty average. Note that some pool bars aren't included and require extra payment.

Overall, the stay felt significantly overpriced for the experience offered. I highly recommend reading and comparing other resort reviews before booking this one.

We have just left the property, and we miss it already! This was our home away from home, but with great beach view, attentive staff, delish and healthy selection of food and many activities to do. They also have a gym (to burn all the food we ingested😆).

We were a bit frustrated cause we had a hard time getting a reservation for their restaurants, after 4 attempts, we were finally booked for 1 out of 5 restaurants! But you know what, after the loooong wait during the dinner, we’d rather dine at the buffet . Their food selection is great.

But one thing that stood was the helpfulness of the staff. During checking in, Rishma was very patient with us, making sure our group (of 14) were all in one building when we requested. She did it with grace, you can tell she is genuinely happy to help us. We didn’t get the name of the trolley driver, but he was a happy soul. He’d always give us holler as he pass by. The chefs and servers, they’re awesome! And the guy at the lobby.. his name is Dimbo (if I can recall it right). He made our stay less stressful, tricky (when we want to go exploring), he gave us tips, called a taxi for us, and made us feel home.

Ahh..one happy island indeed! We hope to be back!🏝️❤️

We went there in the evenings to enjoy the DJ and live music by the pool. Enjoyed the shows by the pool at the Tamarijn. Watching the World Cup games in the lobby with other fans was a bonus.

The location is beautiful, and the food is very good for an all-inclusive resort. However, getting dinner reservations was extremely difficult. We paid a lot to have access to the specialty restaurants but often ended up having to eat at the buffet because no reservations were available.
We were frequently told the restaurants were fully booked, yet when we walked by, many of them appeared to have plenty of empty tables, which was frustrating.
Also, despite advertising that they accommodate special requests for room locations or specific buildings, that was not our experience. We were told they do not honor those requests, which was disappointing.

The resort was very clean, but had limited things to do after dark. This is a very family oriented resort. Great for families but very limited for adults only. Confusing how some areas were all inclusive, but others were not. Margot’s was awesome to eat at, but everywhere else was at best average. The shuttle between Divi and Tamarijn was a long wait depending on the times. A lot of the drivers would “hide” so that the wait was longer than necessary. John from the evening shuttle was always eager and on time to take you anywhere you needed to go. The room was not soundproof because you could hear traffic and music from nearby areas. You could also hear people slamming doors. Great resort but could use some more upgrades.

Tamarijn is an excellent resort, this was my second year staying. The beach is right outside my room, plenty of palapas and lounge chairs. The staff is extremely friendly and ready to help. The food is excellent, from the Cunuku tarrace for breakfast and lunch buffet, to the bar and grill by the pool. The three high end restaurants on site are great with Asian, French and Italian cuisine. It's a great place for a family or adults get away. Love this place, definitely will be back again!

Lo mejor del hotel es su ubicación. La playa Divi es mucho mejor que Palm si quieres descansar y no estar rodeado de mucha gente. El hotel tiene instalaciones correctas, limpias. Algunos aspectos no son lo normal en sistema todo incluido como se promociona: hay piletas que son del
Grupo Divi donde se puede estar pero hay que pagar para consumir, no hay bebidas en el frigobar (debe comprarse y llevarse a la habitación), los carritos no circulan de 12 a 6 am. Esto implica que te venga a buscar un mini carrito de golf para llevarte de a uno y una valija si tienes que hacer el check out antes, la comida es rica aunque es todos los días lo mismo y poco variada. La playa es tan espectacular que lo anterior termina siendo menos importante y vale decir que el personal de recepción es muy amable.

I’m not sure how this hotel got this rating. Honestly this is a no frills, underwhelming and way overpriced hotel it to get the “exceptional” rating that it did. The hotel is not, I repeat is not fully renovated. It’s very dated and we needed to move rooms as the air conditioner unit was dripping inside the room and left a large puddle after a night out. The solution? Towels and we will move you after the middle of the day. Also there are exposed electrical units at some of the restaurants (paparazzi) with water pooling nearby. Little to no staff floating around the area. No one manning the pool area so good luck getting a towel, chair or just having a clean place to eat. The staff we did encounter were not the rudest but also not the friendliest of people on the happy island. They just do the minimal and keep it moving. DIvi the sister property also still under construction in some of the restaurants but at least they have a beach there. But remember it’s also wildly understaffed. Skip this place, but if you want no frills, mediocre food and drinks, don’t mind picking up after everyone else, love to walk on uneven pavers, need to change rooms midway through your stay, take a trolley daily to get to the beach, possibly get a stomach bug from the sad buffet, love being ignored in real time, and really love drinking out of plastic glasses all day every day then this is the place for you. Dated, needs repair, understaffed who are overworked and underwhelming in all aspects.

The staff clearly seemed to prioritize guests who tipped more generously. I paid a significant amount to stay at this hotel—I wasn't expecting special treatment, just the basic level of service every guest should receive.
At the buffet, we often couldn't even get a glass of water while other tables were being served promptly. We tipped $1–3 each time, yet we were rarely offered water or asked if we wanted drinks after being seated. It was frustrating to feel overlooked despite consistently tipping and paying to stay at the hotel.

Just came back from this trip and I dont know why they have such a high rating . So let me start from the beginning. When we arrived. 12pm ofc they didn't have any room available- that's normal, so we waited till 3 o'clock as we should then we follow up about room - wasn't ready i waited another 30 minutes follow up again and still not ready !!! At this point my kids were all stressed and tired . All other guests got their room on time . After I yelled at them they finally rush them to clean our room . Upon arrival to our room it was all wet and you can tell they were cleaning it in probably 5 minutes. In our room we supposed to have \"welcome gift\" which wasn't there and we have to ask for it. Another problem of this place FLY EVERYWHERE when you eat food they swamp your food all over ... Service is another horrible thing that this place has. Servers not working well and they not interested to work for tips. Oh btw you think all inclusive hotel must offer u full mini fridge stucked with drinks ? Guess what? Its empty . After I called they told me it's always empty for my own use. For this money I rather go somewhere else next time , would not recommend to go here. Spend you money right and go to DR or Mexico. Not sure how people give this place positive feedback. My honest rating 4 out 10.

The beach is absolutely beautiful, and the oceanfront location is the hotel’s biggest strength. The Beach Bar served one of the best burgers we had, the Pool Bar was good, and the Barista café offered excellent coffee and fresh pastries. Azia (Japanese) was outstanding, especially the sushi.

Unfortunately, the hotel has several areas that need improvement. The room was smaller than expected, the bathroom has no exhaust fan, and opening the balcony door brings in many flies. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable and caused back pain after a few nights.

The biggest disappointment was the food. Breakfast had very limited options, lunch was average, and the dinner buffet at Divi was poor. The specialty restaurants were inconsistent: Paparazzi was disappointing (an Italian restaurant without pizza was surprising), while the Mexican restaurant was average and not authentic. The reservation system is also frustrating—if you don’t book immediately after arrival, you may not get into the best restaurants until the end of your stay.

Another issue was the water refill stations, as several were out of service. Finally, both check-in and check-out were extremely slow, with only two employees handling long lines. We waited nearly an hour just to check out.

The resort has an amazing beach and great potential, but improving food quality, front desk staffing, and restaurant reservations would make a huge difference.

The property was pretty great! We really enjoyed that our room was ocean front and super close to the pool and bar. We stayed at the Tamarijn resort which is just a short shuttle ride away from the other resorts. The divi is right next door and has nightly music from different bands! Each night was a fun time! The Caribbean temptation drinks were the absolute best!! How ever make sure they are fixing virgin drinks for your kids. My daughter is 13 and was served several alcoholic beverages even tho she had the child bracelet on. The cleaning crew was so nice and kind and did a great job! The front desk staff was awesome too! And so welcoming! Annacorina with the concierge made an absolute mess of our tour reservations and never once took any responsibility or tried to help! She was absolutely ridiculous and told me that I should’ve just been happy with the tour we got to go on even tho she booked the wrong tour!! Even after asking multiple times “this is the one that takes us to conchi? Correct?” She assured us that it was. It was in fact NOT the correct tour! She never tried to fix it. I asked for a manager and she said they were not there that day. Of course they weren’t. Other than her, the rest of our trip was great! The beach at divi was gorgeous!

Our first time in Aruba and we want to go back! The hotel was amazing, nice beds, nice view, great food. The fact that you can enjoy both resorts (Divi and Tamarijn) makes it perfect. Staff is friendly, people at the restaurants are amazing. The only thing that happened to us was the first night, the people next door were really loud in the middle of the night, laughing while having fun and the noise woke us up several times. That was only one night but if people are walking thru the hallway you can hear them inside your room too. Putting this aside, I recommend this resort, the activities, the people, the restaurants and the stores in the property. Staff kindness and their hospitality are beyond words. We enjoyed every second of it! We want to go back and stay again at Tamarijn or Divi.

The amenities are great, but over the past few years, changes by management has made a decline to our stay. Last year, they changed the buffet at night that you had to go to the Divi, eliminating the Tamarijn night buffet. This creates longer lines of people from both resorts. It is also difficult to get dinner reservations at the other all inclusive restaurants. For the price we pay to have all inclusive, this has been a significant decline over the past 2 years. We have been to the Tamarijn 5 years in a row.
Also, they use to have the servers deliver coffee in the morning, now that has been replaced by 2 machines. We also noticed some decline in the maintenance of the property.

Sad to see this has happened.

Good view of the beach but it’s advertised as an all inclusive but half the restaurants are not included, you need reservations for everything pretty much. The fridge in the room doesn’t have any drinks and if you want a water or anything you have to buy them at the store. Dining options are very limited here. Rooms are okay the tv didn’t work in our room. I don’t think it should be advertised as all inclusive when it’s truly not

Second time in Aruba, stayed both times at the Tamarijn. We had a BLAST! Food was above avg. 8 pools to choose from, the beach was clean and the water was beautiful. We had a slight problem with dinner reservation but the Managers at Tamarijn and Divi fixed it. If I was to change 1 thing it would be that. They only allow you to make reservations 2 days out so you find yourself going to the reservation desk everyday.

We enjoyed our stay! The only issue we had was getting a reservation for dinner. They only book two days out. I was the first in line to make a reservation one day, and the place we wanted was booked already. The food was good though at the places we visited, and the people of Aruba are the kindest you’ll ever meet. The beaches were spectacular. Our room was exactly like the pictures.

Really wonderful staff in the coffee shop and the buffet especially but everyone great. A special shout out to Shrewi (so?) and Derek in the coffee shop who were so friendly and helpful. The resort never felt crowded even though at capacity. It was a great week for us.

We had a very nice stay at Tamarijn. The all inclusive resort offers a nice selection of dining options and activities. My family really enjoyed riding the e-bikes, visiting the butterfly farm and playing bingo by the pool. Our favorite activity at the resort was the guided e-bike and snorkel tour. Our guides Zeef, Lisa and Donny took us to a beautiful beach to snorkel where we saw fish and sea turtles. They worked hard to ensure our safety on the bikes and in the water.

Overall a pretty decent experience. The positives were the convenience, the access to the beach, the staff was friendly, the rooms were nice, only a short taxi ride to the more lively parts of the island, and all inclusive is definitely a nice feature. The only criticism I’d have would be the quality of everything seemed to be a little less than I’m used to. I think this is a result of it being an all inclusive and you get what you pay for but the food is similar no matter where you go, it didn’t seem to matter if it was a restaurant you get reservations for or the buffet, it seemed like it was all the same food packaged a little differently. The drinks were decent but seemed like less alcohol than I’d like. And the only other thing I didn’t love was our room was one of the last ones at the end of the property and it was a WALK and a half to get back to our room from the lobby. That, paired with the less than ideal view of the busy road outside the hotel from the beach was less than ideal. But I think that’s just sort of luck of the draw. They do provide a shuttle if you call the front desk but from our experience the responsiveness of the shuttle seemed to be spotty at best lol sometimes just not even showing up. I know my review seems negative but for the most part we enjoyed it. The things was that nothing really “wowed” us. Everything was just decent. For the price and if are dead set on Aruba, not a horrible option.

For the price there was a little bit to be desired. The room while big had nothing but two beds and looked really empty.

Even though the rooms were cleaned daily, the sheets were never changed.

Transportation around the resorts wasn’t the best. We were often waiting for 20 to 30 minutes for shuttles.

It was nice overall but just missing a lot of small nice to haves that I enjoyed from other resorts.

The resort was well understaffed in the reception/lobby for both check in and check out. The buffet breakfasts and lunches were also understaffed for ordering food and having it prepared in a timely manner. The main bar was also understaffed and not attentive. The wait staff was more than helpful in servicing our table. The shuttle drivers were also very friendly and helpful. Especially John. He was always smiling and happy. The baristas at the cafe were also very friendly and welcoming. Music at the main pool would have been a nice touch as well. To keep you in the Caribbean mood. Our room was clean and maintained perfectly by the cleaning staff. Our toilet did not flush properly and the front desk when informed did nothing about it. I brought it to their attention on multiple occasions. There was also a sewer odor at our building that also lasted as long as our stay. One week.

The holiday started off wrong with the not correct room. When we moved to the room I paid for we were plagued with shower problems. It over flowed and most of our room had an inch of water. They sort of resolved it but not really. Overall the resort was awesome and beautiful. Staff was wonderful. They just need to fix the drain problem. I would go back as Aruba is just sooo beautiful

We stayed in Tamarijn All Inclusive in the first week of June 2026. It was amazing. The rooms are right on the beach. It's so relaxing and nice. The rooms are very basic, but spacious, comfortable, and clean.
You have to reserve the restaurants for dinner, but if you don't you still can go to Divi's buffet (the sister hotel) before 9:30. After 9:30 you are on your own! The Tamarijn buffet is only open for breakfast and lunch (they close between 11 and 12 to prepare for lunch. Lunch is till 3 pm I believe)
VERUSHKA at the reception is amazing! So sweet and helpful. She really made a difference in our stay, and we are SO thankful!

We booked Tamarijn for the beachfront experience and all inclusive amenities shown on the website. Our room was in front of a rocky shoreline rather than the sandy walkable beach depicted in many of the photos. The resort was fully booked and unable to move us. While others may have a different experience depending on room location, we felt the marketing did not accurately reflect what we received. We were looking for a specific location and easy beach access from the room that upon arrival couldn’t be accommodated. This was the first experience we had booking through Expedia where the pictures of the property didn’t match. The rocky shoreline covers 75% of the hotel and should be clearly reflected in photos and descriptions. The remaining 25% is blocked by geotextile sandbags and made it hard to get in the water. We ended up having to drive over to Divi every single day and it was exhausting with little kids. In addition, the website indicated that the Bunker Bar was included in the all inclusive package, but we were told on site that it wasn’t and we had to pay for our drinks so we didn’t use it.

We really appreciated the staff who were friendly and the amenities were great. We used the gym, beach chairs, noodles and did the excursion of the e bikes and snorkeling. That was wonderful. The golf cart service to take you to the other resort was a great amenity too. Things that needed improving were that it was difficult to schedule a reservation for dinners and the only dinner buffet was small and short staffed leading to empty food containers and lack of drinks. When we did get a reservation, it would be for 8 or 9 pm which we felt was too late. We tried for earlier times but it was very limited.

Was an amazing stay! Our room happened to be ready when we got to the hotel which was great because we were able to get right to the beach. From the coffee bar to breakfast and lunch the food was wonderful on the resort. The gym was beautiful being on the second floor having a beautiful view of the beach! I loved that you had a golf cart to drive you to all of the properties to see everything even the casino. The casino wasn’t huge but had a lot of slots and good amount of tables. Also had a little strip mall behind it with shops, a piano bar and more. The resort was very clean and I loved that I didn’t have to rush every morning for beach chairs there was so many areas ro choose from. They supplied water bottles that you can keep as a souvenir since they don’t use plastic throw away bottles on the property. There was plenty of ice machines and water stations. Beds were very comfortable as well. Was very happy with my stay. Great for a couples get away or girls trip.

We just returned from an amazing stay at Tamarijn Aruba and could not have been happier with our experience. The oceanfront location is absolutely stunning—waking up each morning to a breathtaking beach view just steps from our room was unforgettable. Every room being so close to the water makes this resort feel truly special. The resort highlights its oceanfront accommodations and beachfront setting, and it certainly lived up to that promise.

The food exceeded our expectations for an all-inclusive resort. The breakfast buffet offered a wonderful variety each morning, and the dinner options were impressive, with access to numerous restaurants featuring everything from Italian cuisine to Asian-inspired dishes and fresh seafood.

What stood out most was how clean and well-maintained everything was. The grounds, restaurants, beach areas, and rooms were spotless. Most importantly, every staff member we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. Their hospitality made us feel valued throughout our stay. Tamarijn Aruba delivered beautiful scenery, delicious food, exceptional service, and a relaxing atmosphere. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Aruba.
